And with your excellent equipment, all the elements of greatness are assembled.
These are so good! I had to go back a few times to see all the phenomenal details.

Until getting a lens that could handle the job (100-400mm), I couldn't get shots of dragonflies worth posting here. I've used your work as a reference for what makes a great dragonfly photo.
